Hear the Orators The Southern California TROJAN _Official Organ of the Associated Students, Uniyersity of Southern California_ Vol. VII. Los Angeles, California, Wednesday, January 19, 1916 No. 61 MILLIKAN OPTIMISTIC ATTORNEY ROGERS OVER BASEBALL POPULAR Sees Chance for Winning Team—Veterans Turn Out for Early Practice—Many New Players Will be Seen By “PAT” MILLIKAN Baseball is again with us. The opening of a season always finds abundant enthusiasm. It is not difficult to be optimistic at this state, before any problems have presented themselves. We are beginning a season that holds forth the greatest promise for all concerned. Coach and captain have been given a fine group of men to work with, and the players have been promised a very attractive schedule of games. This schedule is a sort of dependent one, inasmuch as the team must prove a winner in order to get the big Honolulu trip. Rain Interferes Practice has begun, but that is as far as it has gone. Rain and baseball do not mix well. There are undoubtedly some stars on the team, but they will shine this year only when occasion demands it. There seems^Jo be a feeling on the part of the men that is different to that of past years. It may be that the trips promised are the sole cause, but it is my opinion that there is another reason, and that is that the men realize that in order to win ball games we must have a ball team, and not nine players. There will be two chief rules for I play on the field, and I believe that every player will follow these. They j are: “I’m never out till the ‘ump’ says so,” and “the game’s never over till the last man’s out.” From what I have seen of the men this year, it is unnecessary to give them the above I rules to follow, for it seems to be a I natural part of their play. Veterans Out It is impossible to write of all the men on the squad. Their names are not yet familiar. But there arc a few of whom I can say a few words. Captain Cad Counts, Hirsh, Holloway, Marxen, Stew Miller, and Peckham were on the field last year. Hirsh and Holloway were the right side of the defense on the infield last year. They should be better than ever this year. There is a chance that Holloway may !>e shifted to the outfield. I believe >hat lie would make the greatest outsider on the coast. But he is also j1 star shortstop, so there’s the problem. Counts showed wonderful abil-”y 'n the two games he pitched last year and if he can start the season this time without that sore arm he will show he way to all the teams he works against. In addition, as cap-,a'n. Cad has the industry and personal magnetism that make a real 'eader. Hirsh needs no introduction. His playing last year rose to heights j 01 great brilliancy. He should repeat. ' ‘ eckham was out a while last year and showed great promise. He has | the natural ability and the work of (Continued on Page 3) Speaks on Subject of “Books and Their Uses” at College of Law Tuesday Continuing his series of lectures. Attorney Earl Rogers spoke to the students of the College of Law yesterday on the subject of “Books and Their Uses.” Mr. Rogers, in speaking of the necessity of determing what books to read, pointed out that there are 35,000 books in the county law library, and he showed the impossibility of reading all of them. His advice was to get the very best and latest text books and learn the principles upon which the law is founded. “Law is common sense and law is right,” he said. “Make up your own judgment and if you have been properly educated you will be able to decide which side is the right. There are certain principles of right and justice that stand for all times. If you once get these principles into your head you can rest assured that you will find authority to sustain them.” In brief his advice may be summed up as "keep the digests, keep the encyclopedia, and the best text books you can get on any subject, but if you do not know the law and its broader principles, you will not be able to use the books." His next lecture will be given on next Thursday at 12:15 p. m., in the assembly room. NEW REQUIREMENT E IS Special Students at Law School Will be Forced to Face New Restrictions At the last meeting of the board of control of the College of Law, a change was made in the entrance requirements for special students. Heretofore, it has been customary to admit students who have not the requisite prep'school credentials, solely upon the recommendation of Dean Porter. Now however, such candidates for admission, must be at least 21 years of age and must have some practical business experience credentials. Such students when admitted will not be entitled to a degree upon graduation, but will, however, be admitted to the bar. Boys Beware! Merry Maids Have Measles Stay away from 903 W. 35th street. To young men who are in the habit of visiting there, warning is given. The red sign is out. Measles! We don’t know who’s got ’em—we can’t enter to inquire, but there are ten girls in quarantine for ten days, which no doubt automatically quarantines at least ten young men. “High-brow advice to these young men should stir them to action toward studies. When one has no place to go, it is a good time to study, and examinations are coming. It might be a good thing for | first semester grades to quaran-. tine a few more dormitories. ..........”.............¥ “EIGHT-WEEK" CLUBS Miss Edith Dabb of New York Recommends Organizations for Country Girls “We must be banded together to help,” said Miss Edith Dabb of New York, speaking of the “eight-week” clubs before the Y. W. C. A. yesterday morning. “Girls who have had the opportunities and advantages of j college should be willing to make ] friends with other girls.” “The idea of the ‘eight-week’ movement is that the college girl returning to the small town or country shall organize clubs for mutual benefit. This movement is already being pushed hard in Pennsylvania with the results that several new associations have been formed.” Miss Dabb hopes that many college girls will become interested in this movement and that several clubs will be formed in California during the summer. TO BE AND TROPHIES TO-NIGHT EXTENSION COURSE IN LAW WELL ATTENDED SOUTH AMERICAN CUSTOMS WILL BE SUBJECT OF TALK Dr. Julius Zeigner-Uriburn of Argentina, who is to speak in senior assembly on Friday, will also address the students of the Spanish classes at 1:15 in the zoological lecture room.

The next series will be on “Equity Jurisprudence.” by Prof. Chas. C. Montgomery. These ltctures are well attended. Philosophy, History and Current Events Will be Well Probed by Eleven Contestants, Two Are Women. Speaking on every conceivable subject which might draw forth from the depths of man’s nature the ancient eloquence of Demosthenes, nine men and two women of the university, four registering from the College of Law and seven from the College of Liberal Arts, will battle at 7 p. m. this evening for Old Line Oratorical Contest honors, and incidentally for the semester scholarship and the further right to represent the university in the Southern California Intercollegiate Oratorical Association contest to be held March 17 of this year.
